    Being an electrical engineer, I love anything that sparks, buzzes, or glows. These are most excellent and I'm particularly fond of the first. I've had this idea for a shot in my head for months and this might just be the inspiration to go get it (nothing dangerous).

    Exellent! Love the details, and mono makes them more interesting, I think.

    I like the first one too. Unusual subject for a photo - the strong graphic lines and diagonals make a really punchy image.

    I like the top one best but both are very good.

    wow, the first one zings... 'look at me' sort of thing
    the 2nd subtly waits and gradually works its charm!
    I like!

    have to laugh at woody... "nothing dangerous" makes it all the more intriguing!

    I like the first one Julie. Then again, I can't make up my mind because the second photo has me interested as well.

    You've done a great job of taking a common thing that would have gone unnoticed by most and made it glorious.

    Common objects that we don't think twice about suddenly acquire a new dimension when you concentrate on shape and form in Black and white.

    Very industrial. I really miss not having a railway close by! They tracks and cables make for great subjects. Great job!

    what beautiful clear shots, not that all your photos aren't clear but I guess it's the contrast of the b&w. They've made a great subject!

    That's the sort of stuff I find myself taking pictures of, and then having to explain to those with me why I'm taking pictures of wires. Cheers!
